You'll be glad to know our demo of Horizonto, The Barrowburn, Trestle Bridge and Bonny at Morn is finally recorded!  While it was very quickly done and with a slight lack of time to arrange it the way we wanted, we hope it will show off our sound.  Big thanks to Mike Coleman for allowing us to use the studio in Core Music for a grand total of £0 and Dave Ainsley (Helen's dad) for his patience with recording and mixing our music.  Recordings will be posted on myspace on the 21st April, if things go as planned.

Here's how it went though:
We arrived at the studio right on time which was amazing with us lot and being very "organised".  Of course, I was straight in to look at the guitars which I was told I wasn't allowed to do because we were there to record.  Stu had his new keyboard there, which will be appearing at our gigs in the future - lucky him, eh?  Once we had set up the mikes and all the rest of the stuff, Mike (not an intended pun) pointed out that tapping our feet might come out in the recording and since we're such groovy people we ended up with huge cushions and duvets under our feet.  Things got stressful fast but we got through each recording in a few takes and without screaming at each other.  The recordings themselves were good but if we'd had more time in the studio we would have probably chosen to have another take, or maybe we're just being too self-critical.  We'll find out when Dave's finished mixing!  Overall, it was great to be in the studio doing all of this and even though it was stressful we had a good laugh while doing it.

just to add to danes wonderful retelling of the story.
i would like to congratulate the band on not killing each other in the process of recording and point out that after all, as stu said, we have bonded as a band! :) lol
